Aim High, a Pop-punk/Alternative-core band out of Columbia, SC, releases their debut project, a 'Dual EP' titled 'Garnet Eyes//Severed Ties'. If you are looking for something a bit different, if you are looking for punk/metal rock then my friends check out Aim High.

"The concept behind the 'Dual EP' thing is that our band has a multitude of sounds and we wanted to separate the sonically lighter 'pop-punky' material (Garnet Eyes) from the heavier, more "core" soundscapes (Severed Ties) " the band explains.

Actually on first listen I thought punk, but the quick licks moves me to think they are more metal sounding. The band say this is their more pop-punk part of the dual EP which I can see a little, but if you're looking for something like Green Day, I would say these Garnet Eyes tracks are a little bit heavier musically. I don’t think I have ever seen a band release a track called 'Whole Milk', I can’t wait for the follow up track called 'Semi Skimmed' or 'Slightly gone off milk, but not sure until you stick your nose in the bottle and it doesn’t smell right Milk', sorry, I know I’m being silly but I do love this track. It's by far my favourite track on the EP.

If you like your music with big guitar sounds, pounding drums and aggressive metal vocals then please check out Aim High and this EP. I might have to listen to the heavier 'Severed Ties' now .
